Lost property can be collected whilst the venue is open. Lost property is unable to be collected outside of these hours.

Yellow Arch does not have a strict dress code. All we ask is that you refrain from wearing track suits and football shirts. Trainers are welcome. If you wear a hat we may ask you to remove it. Some events may require a stricter dress code. If this is the case, the code will be clearly displayed at the entrance to the venue.
